i like puzzles which are vibrant and colorful, ones which are difficult like one of Shockwave's jigsaw games. there's a puzzle pack which has balls of bubblegum. Gamehouse has a puzzle pack which has citrus fruits, and another one with colored glass. those are always fun.
tony's my biggest supporter; he bought me a few puzzles and several bottles of what could be misconstrued as "puzzle glue". thanks, baby. ;)
i like to use the cardboard that's stacked between paper tissue at Costco. that way i can place it on some stools so i can sit on the ground, i can put it on a table if i want to sit on a chair, or i can put it on the ground so i can be lazy. well, there is a drawback, because although it will fit into the hallway, it won't fit inside the doorway. so whenever i don't have oodles of time for a 1000-piece puzzle (which is about the only size i will do if i'm really serious about puzzling) then i have to totally kill progress and ruin the beauteous flat plane of the cardboard by folding it to fit it through into my room.
OOOHHH, by the way, i made this background, of which i am totally proud. : p
